Installation and Start
On my Mac Book (2009), the installation took just over an hour, which has initially a little confused me because previously took no "installation" as long. However, it is really worthwhile to wait, because after that can play CD without the game, which is one of the big pluses.
However, one must be careful with the operating system of its own Mac running Mac OS X 10.7 there seems to be, some of which even can be solved with a patch problems with the game.
No annoying rattling in the CD drive and no permanent CD insertion are needed to enjoy this game.
What has me still surprised was the fact that the computer despite good graphics not as hot running as in other games.
When you first start the game you can select the desired language. One can choose between German, English and French.

The game
In the first chapter you learn Jack and the operation of the game to know. It is based on the simple point-and-click principle.
At the top of the screen is the inventory, however, is this the beginning still pretty empty.
By left click you can move yourself and find some interesting items, right-click can perform any other actions.
It is advisable to look at all the items in the inventory, can sometimes be as important instructions for solution of one or another riddle find.
The game is easy and comfortable to operate, after the first few minutes, this works quite intuitively.
Toll is also the humorous dialogues that make really fun, as well as the generously scattered cinematics.
The puzzles are not very difficult to solve, even if sometimes unconventional approaches need to be solved.
In any case, this game is also recommended for adventure newbies.
It's also nice idea to get through some actions bonuses. What exactly is, everyone has to find out for yourself.
Experienced adventure gamers will also smile about the many allusions to Adventure classic and well-known feature films that are hidden in the game.
In 13 chapters, the player Jack accompanied on his adventurous journey. Three times it slips into the role of Amanda.
You see, the game is really worth a buy recommendation! The reason for the "point deduction" is in my opinion rather short season. Overall, I played about 15-20 hours to the game. Other games, such as Monkey Iceland have, but occupied myself much longer.
Nevertheless, for all adventure fans: Buying this game, who has not played it missed, definitely a great adventure!
